Purely speculation but they could have stayed in the south of England for a double leg which is quite typical these days at the start of the race. If they stay out of London, there would be less chance of being spotted.

Remember there are ferries too that cross the English Channel. The White Cliffs of Dover would be nice, that would give an easy 90 min ferry trip accross to Calais in France for the next leg then from there they could travel anywhere in Europe either by car or train.

I just realized that Luxembourg is still maybe possible. Teams may have did an extra task in England still and flew from Heathrow to Amsterdam to Findel Airport on KLM/KLM Cityhopper. It could be possible that teams may arrived in Luxembourg later in the evening if they encountered a layover in Amsterdam. If they arrived in the evening and if the venue for the next clue is already closed til morning, they would have to wait overnight til the place opens. It could still be possible!

There's something thats really bothering me. How can two teams that were reported be in Luxembourg on Friday and and teams at Heathrow Airport on the same day but at a later time. How many teams were seen at Heathrow at that time? The Findel Airport posting does sound legit to me and the teams pink F/F and orange M/M does sound accurate. Were other teams spotted at Findel or not? Did they flew Gatwick-Luxembourg on a first-come, first-served basis if seats were limited and the remainder of teams flew Heathrow-Luxembourg via connecting airport later on?

We may not know until later which reports are genuine, and which are fakes, so we have to look into all of them. Any one who has photos, or can provide information about the contestants that hasn't been publicly published on the forums is easier to verify, but sightings describing pink F/F or orange M/M could have come directly from this forum, or the video from Capt Joe.

One would hope they have changed into fresh clothes a couple of times by now.... It is early days, so we don't yet have enough evidence to know if some teams have packed an entire wardrobe in their team color, or whether they will wear different colored clothes thru the race (like the Red F/F team that had already changed clothes when they got to Logan airport)

I actually don't trust either, but if I had to choose, I'd go with Luxembourg. It seems as though TAR didn't spend much time in Europe, something they will probably do this cycle.

Where is there a Findel airport tweet please? I thought that was spec....
